    This is a lore-friendly answer to Chevrolet Corvair. Its build around the Bluebuck body and frame, reshaped, shortened, moulded, squished, elongated etc. Engine is living in the back, its based on Picolina F4 but two pistons are added to make it F6. its bigger, more powerful, sounds great. It sits in LeGran independent rear suspension.

    Right now there is only one body style, hardtop 2 door, might make more in future, even thinking about earlier pre-facelift. right now im making 2.3 and 2.6 engines with turbo options, all of it is air-cooled.

    Looks great! Although I would probably change the name to something else, Chevy might get mad if you stay using Corsair. Also a little confusion that your competitor has a car by the same name.

    Ford UK had a car named Corsair. You should rename it something else like Gavril Gazelle

    Gazelle is under GAZ to this day. Almost every name is taken nowadays. This car is not similiar to Ford not Lincoln under that name, i could think of a new name but i dont think it will be necessary.

    Apperently name Corvair came to be combining Corvette and Bel Air. I could take the Gavril Vendetta - lore friendy Corvette and name this one Vendair or something like that.

    Will it be as easy to flip over as the original Corvair?
    Nice start!

    Ooo, looks quite nice
    Will it have an European variant?
    The Corvair was sold in limited numbers in Europe after all

    to me this name is not a good choice because a very big popular gaming brand is called corsair, so its a bit confusing

    Taking into account the origins of the real name, I would say that a decent name would be something like Ravburn (Ravix + Burnside) but idk

    Will there be other body styles in the future? For example, a station wagon and a convertible.
    And as far as I remember, the Corveier also had a Van version.
